The approach passes OS Handles areound instead of the Posix Fd as on Linux. The reason is that I could not find any real documentation about the behaviour of Windows w.r.t inheritance and Posix FDs. The implementation with Fd did not seem to be able to find the Fd in the child process. Instead I'm using the much better documented approach of passing inheriting handles. This requires a small modification to the `process` library. https://github.com/haskell/process/pull/52 Test Plan: ./validate On Windows x86_64 Reviewers: thomie, erikd, bgamari, simonmar, austin, hvr Reviewed By: simonmar Subscribers: #ghc_windows_task_force Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D1836 GHC Trac Issues: #11100 }}} -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11100#comment:16 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
